So many surprisingly healthy stories to track down and fix, so little time
A lot of people are about to enter a Kiryu state of mind, and that warms my heart like a toasted towel just coming out of the dryer. Finally, Sega has been released The Yakuza Remastered Collection on Steam and Xbox One – the three game bundle costs $ 40, or you can use the Xbox Game Pass if you have one.
You can also buy the 1080p / 60fps remasters from Yakuza 3, Yakuza 4, and Yakuza 5 separately if you wish, but you will lose some savings in the process. The games are $ 20 each if you go that route.
You may not have the opportunity to play these three titles yet, but it is encouraging to know that you will have the chance to watch them on your platform of choice. It’s important that the mainline series is all available in one place (and I hope some of the spin-off games will pop up again in the future).
I have the PS4 edition of The Yakuza Remastered Collection, and I wait for the right moment to play them through feverishly in sequence. I jump from hibernation to intense obsession.
The next stop on the Yakuza train will be the PS5 version of Yakuza: Like a Dragon, which comes out March 2, followed by Yakuza 6: The Song of Life, which comes out March 25 on Xbox One and PC.
